Winter Writing classes and day retreat

I am teaching ongoing Contemplative Writing classes (including a day retreat in at the Shambhala Center in East Madison, on December 29th, from 10am-5pm ) at the Madison Shambhala Center. Contemplative Writing - inspired by the teachings of Natalie Goldberg which combine Zen Buddhism and writing in a single practice - is a highly personal practice, done in small groups, encouraging writers and "non-writers" alike to work more directly with the creative process and find it less intimidating and more inspiring.

Registration fills up quickly, but class times I hold are:
Tuesday 6:30, Wednesday 9am, Thursday 4:30 and Thursday 7:30. If you are interested, please contact me and we'll see what class we can get you into next. The next session begins November 6th.


More than just a "spiritual journaling class", Contemplative Writing is a formal practice which can be useful for writers of any ilk. For further information or to register, please contact Miriam over phone or email: 608-217-2132, herspiral@yahoo.com.
